What Dragon Broken Links does
Find and fix broken internal, external and image links from your own server — no cloud, no credits, no metering.
Checks everything
internal links, external links and images, with no link limit.
Two engines, done right
internal links are resolved against your database (fast, always accurate, no self-requests); external links are fetched politely, one request per unique URL no matter how many posts use it.
No false alarms
a link is only marked *broken* after a hard failure (404/410, DNS or connection failure) is confirmed across repeated checks. Ambiguous responses (bot-blocking 403s, rate limits, timeouts) are shown as *needs review*, never as broken.
Fix in place
edit a link's URL or remove the link entirely, directly from the report. Fully block-editor aware, so it never corrupts your content.
Dismiss & re-check
ignore links you do not care about, or re-check a single link on demand.
Scan now
run a full scan from the dashboard with live progress, plus a weekly background re-check.
WP-CLI
`wp dragon-broken-links scan`, `list` and `recheck` for large or headless sites.
Secure by design
external checks refuse to reach private or internal network addresses.
